Cane Toads

Cane toads


"Cane Toads are considered a pest in Australia because they:

· poison pets and injure humans with their toxins
· poison many native animals whose diet includes frogs, tadpoles and frogs' eggs
· eat large numbers of honey bees, creating a management problem for bee-keepers
· prey on native fauna
· compete for food with vertebrate insectivores such as small skinks
may carry diseases that are can be transmitted to native frogs and fishes."
